for plant dye enthusiasts
ISEND2011 will be taking place at La Rochelle
in France
in the last week of April
so i've been thinking about what i might be doing
around that time
and have decided on two things
one will be a five day workshop/retreat in the UK
[first week of May 2011]
the other will be a four day retreat in Belgium
[16-19 May]
revisiting the beautiful garden that i fell in love with last year
[yes, i know it's not the Netherlands
but it's much closer than Australia]
so those of you who have kindly enquired
when i might be teaching in Europe
have a year's notice to keep space in your diaries
in case you're still interested
details will be on my website in a month or so
time is short so i won't be able to stay much later
or travel much further
[except to catch up with friends and family
in Austria and Germany]
as i have commitments in the U.S.A.
in the following month
and need to go home for a fresh pair of socks
in between
YES! I have seen that book at SRI Threads-- but it was sold out back then-will look again-- and you will love London and the UK-- I LOVE Edinburgh Scotland- and my other dream is to go to Bruges Belgium someday-- lucky you.
ReplyDeleteVisiting again that beautiful garden in Lier and you, I gladly be the first to register.

I'm reading your beautifull book eco-colour right now and fell in love with your art years ago.(remember a felt cape with leaves in an exhibition in Amersfoort and a felt dress with embroidery in Tilburg. And a circle of wool in the landscape in a Dutch magazine... Hope to be able to meet you in Belgium next year! www.marijkebongers.blogspot.com
ReplyDeletei think Marijke has me confused with someone else [except for the book]
ReplyDeleteso I'd better set the record straight... I have indeed shown huge ecoprint felt dresses in Europe [in the Filz show that toured 2000-2002] but not a leafed cape
and i made an installation of raw wool [not a circle but a 'koru'] in a grassy place for a sculpture exhibition
[reported in an Australian magazine]
anyway thank you for the compliments
I love your blog, I love the name of your blog (one of my favorite quotes of all time)...I will be back, again and again...
ReplyDeleteWelcome for a stay in Belgium near Brussels.
ReplyDeleteI will be going to the event in France to.
Greetings
